Casino Chowaha ( poker )


A hold 'em variant invented in a private game by RGPer Mike Chow, and popularized at BARGE, in
which each player gets two down cards, the dealer flops nine cards, arranged in three rows of three,
then turns two cards vertically at the ends of the "corridors" between the preceding rows, and rivers one card in
the middle and to the right of the two, the whole arrangement forming a large arrow-like structure.
Players form their best five-card hand using their two plus any three cards from the four possible five-card board combinations:
top row of three plus top card of two plus river card, bottom row of three plus bottom card of two plus river card,
middle row of three plus either one of the two turn cards plus river card.
